N100008,  “The GM Jam Handy Video 350 SS Car”, was delivered on May 27, 1966 from Fisher Body as coach #DD08D.  Like all F-Body Pilot Prototypes at Norwood, it started its hand built assembly in consecutive VIN number order as the eighth build of the engineering study.  One of one on Fleet and Special Order # 5-14 made by Engineering Body of Design, it carried model # 12637.  This gold on gold coupe was the fifth coupe ever built and the first coupe with high performance options.  With a 350 cubic inch power plant and a power-glide automatic transmission, its presence in the latter portions of the General Motors Jam Handy Video make it a highly documented piece of early high performance Camaro history.   It was required to be received by C. Caswell at the General Motors Proving Grounds on or around June 13, 1966 for testing, but was shipped seven days late.  NCRS certificates show #8 being returned to corporate, Zone 0 and it is thought to have been used as a company promotional vehicle shortly thereafter. Extensive and exhaustive history searches have gleaned no documented ownership history.  Current whereabouts and existence is unknown as of 3-1-2015.
